Shyloh's P.O.V.

Rowan had tried calling me at least twenty times since the day at the diner. I ignored every single call and didn't call back until I heard the voice message on my phone.

"Hey Shyloh. Its me, Rowan, again. Sorry for bothering you but I really need to talk to you. Its super important. I don't want to say too much over the phone but I need help. I don't want to be with Ariel. Call back. We need to meet and talk. Thanks. Bye."

I was frozen. He didn't want to be with Ariel anymore? After all these years of wanting him and when I finally move on he doesn't want her? That son of a bitch! Just my fucking luck! But I was with Phoenix now. I cared about him alot. But that didn't mean that I still couldn't help out an old friend. Maybe it was about time to forgive him. Maybe.

*Later that week*

I decided to meet up with Rowan and he told me how he just didn't feel the same way about Ariel anymore. He didn't want to hurt her though. I told him to break it to her gently and give her time to work through her anger and sadness before trying to make peace with her again. "Thanks Shy. You always did know what to do in bad situations." I smiled. We were talking about old times and before I knew it I felt like I had my best friend back again.

I was getting ready to leave and Rowan walked out to my car with me. "Thanks for helping. It means alot. I feel like I have my best friend back again." I smiled. "I feel the same way Rowan." I was about to climb in my car when Rowan caught me by the shoulder. "Shyloh, wait..."

Rowan's P.O.V.

I grabbed her by the shoulder. "Shyloh, wait..." I kissed her. I don't care if she's with Phoenix I know its always been her that I've loved. I knew deep down that she felt the same. She had to. She pulled away. "Rowan! I'm with Phoenix!" I rolled my eyes. "Are you really happy with him? Seriously?!" She looked shocked and hurt. "Yes I am happy with him! You can't just expect me to admit feelings that I once had for you are still there after you waltz right back into my life after being gone all those years!" I was hurt but I knew it was the truth. "I'm sorry Shy. But I do love you. I always have. And one day maybe I will finally get to call you mine. I just have to imagine what could have been." With that I walked away, leaving Shyloh alone by her car.
